Reviews for The Fury Of A Patient Man...
The Big Takeover
It's incomprehensible how many bands continue to go back to the stoner rock well; surely the damn thing must be empty by now. Gozu say no with The Fury. Besides wielding bruising riffs like katanas, the Cambridge, MA quartet shows an impish sense of pop culture humor with titles like "Charles Bronson Pinchot," "Disco Related Injury" and the Welcome Back, Kotter referencing "Signed, Epstein's Mom." But the primary reasons Gozu stomps most pot smoking riffmeisters into the ground are their two frontdudes. Guitarist Doug Sherman maintains a melodic touch even as his amps scream for mercy, and singer Marc Gaffney exudes as much soul as bravado. Check out the chugging, handclapping "Salty Thumb" for a song that by rights should rule rock radio, if such a thing still existed.

You mentioned wanting to try this new barbeque place downtown and she was totally game so here you both are, grinning over stripped bones and three knuckles deep in the best sauces you’ve ever tasted. The dinner crowd is clearing out, and you start to notice a pulsing rumble coming from the floor, traveling up the table legs and vibrating the emptied dishes. Your girl notices the restroom sign points down a staircase in the back and excuses herself. It’s ten minutes before you think fuck it and head down there yourself, and as the rumble resolves into amp-shaking chords and rump-shaking grooves, you notice your girl coiled on the arm of some hairy oldster guitarist pounding out the curly blues riffs. Her tongue’s in his ear, your tongue’s....... more
